Here is a new robot creature that I created! It doesn’t have a name yet, so it’s just called ‘weird eyebrow robot’. It reacts differently when you ‘pet’ it and ‘poke’ it. Beware when it ruffles its brow! It enjoys singing short jingles. Rumour has it that the light up googely eye can peer into your soul.

Erin also showed off this bot in our Show and Tell last weekend!
